Tie to GND plane for best thermal performance. SW (Pin 6): Switch Pin. Connect the inductor at this pin. Minimize the trace at this pin to reduce EMI. OPENLED (Pin 2): Open LED Status Pin. The OPENLED pin asserts if the FB input is greater than the FB regulation threshold minus 60mV (typical). The pin must have an external pull-up resistor to function. When the PWM input is low and the converter is idle, the OPENLED condition is latched to the last valid state when the PWM input was high. When the PWM input goes high again, the OPENLED pin will be updated. This pin may be used to report an open LED fault. ANODE (Pin 7): Internal Schottky Anode Pin. PWM (Pin 3): Pulse Width Modulated Input. A signal low disables the oscillator and turns off the main switch. PWM has an internal pull-down resistor. Tie PWM pin to VREF if not used. FB (Pin 13): Voltage Loop Feedback Pin. It is used to connect to output resistor divider for constant voltage regulation or open LED protection. The internal transconductance amplifier will regulate FB to 1.22V (nominal) through the DC/DC converter. If the FB input is regulating the loop, the OPENLED pull-down is asserted. This action may signal an open LED fault. Do not leave the FB pin open. If not used, connect to GND. SHDN/UVLO (Pin 4): Shutdown and Undervoltage Lockout Pin. An accurate 1.22V falling threshold with externally programmable hysteresis detects when power is okay to enable switching. Rising hysteresis is generated by the external resistor divider and an accurate internal 2μA pulldown current. Above the 1.25V (nominal) rising threshold (but below 6V), SHDN/UVLO input bias current is sub-μA. Below the falling threshold, a 2μA pull-down current is enabled so the user can define the hysteresis with external resistor selection. Tie to 0.4V or less to disable device and reduce VIN quiescent current below 1μA. Pin may be tied to VIN, but do not tie it to a voltage higher than VIN if VIN is less than 6V. VIN (Pin 5): Input Supply Pin. This pin must be locally bypassed with a 1μF ceramic capacitor (or larger) placed close to it. CATHODE (Pin 10): Internal Schottky Cathode Pin. ISP (Pin 11): Current Sense Resistor Positive Pin. This input is the noninverting input of the internal current sense amplifier. ISN (Pin 12): Current Sense Resistor Negative Pin. This input is the inverting input of the internal current sense amplifier. CTRL (Pin 14): Current Sense Threshold Voltage Adjustment Pin. This pin sets the threshold voltage across the sense resistor between ISP and ISN. Connect directly to the VREF pin or a voltage above 1.2V for full-scale threshold of 250mV, or use a voltage between 0.1V and 1.2V to linearly adjust the threshold. Tie CTRL pin to the VREF pin if not used. VREF (Pin 15): Reference Output Pin. Typically 2V. This pin can supply up to 100μA. 3519f 6 LT3519 BLOCK DIAGRAM LED ARRAY COUT RSENSE L1 VIN PWM 11 12 3 ISN ISP + 10 PWM 7 CATHODE 6 ANODE SW D1 – VIN 5 s4 100mV –+ 1.2V 14 CTRL – + + CIN A1 + – A3 + + 1.22V R1 13 FB RC ERROR AMPLIFIER A2 G3 MAIN SWITCH DRIVER CC + – A4 G1 R Q1 MAIN SWITCH G2 Q S PWM COMPARATOR R2 VIN 4 SHDN/UVLO + BANDGAP AND BIAS + 2μA – G4 Q3 VIN 100μA 15 GND 1, 8, 9, 16 RAMP GENERATOR – 1.22V RS A5 FB + 1.16V – OSCILLATOR OPENLED 2 Q4 VREF – 2V + A6 Q2 3519 BD 3519f 7 LT3519 OPERATION The LT3519 are constant frequency, current mode regulators with an internal power switch and Schottky. Operation can be best understood by referring to the Block Diagram. At the start of each oscillator cycle, the SR latch is set, which turns on the Q1 power switch. A voltage proportional to the switch current is added to a stabilizing ramp and the resulting sum is fed into the positive terminal of the PWM comparator, A4. When this voltage exceeds the level at the negative input of A4, the SR latch is reset, turning off the power switch. The level at the negative input of A4 is set by the error amplifier A3. A3 has two inputs, one from the voltage feedback loop and the other one from the current loop. Whichever feedback input is lower takes precedence to set the VC node voltage, and forces the converter into either a constant-current or a constant-voltage mode. The LT3519 are designed to transition cleanly between these two modes of operation. The current sense amplifier senses the voltage across RSENSE and provides an ×4 pre-gain to amplifier A1. The output of A1 is simply an amplified version of the difference between the voltage across RSENSE and the lower of VCTRL or 1.1V. In this manner, the error amplifier sets the correct peak switch current level to regulate the current through RSENSE. If the error amplifier’s output increases, more current is delivered to the output; if it decreases, less current is delivered. The current regulated in RSENSE can be adjusted by changing the input voltage VCTRL. The FB voltage loop is implemented by the amplifier A2. When the voltage loop dominates, The VC node voltage is set by the amplified difference of the internal reference of 1.22V and the FB pin. If FB voltage is lower than the reference voltage, the switch current will increase; if FB voltage is higher than the reference voltage, the switch demand current will decrease. The LED current sense feedback interacts with the FB voltage feedback so that FB will not exceed the internal reference and the voltage between ISP and ISN will not exceed the threshold set by the CTRL pin. For accurate current or voltage regulation, it is necessary to be sure that under normal operating conditions the appropriate loop is dominant. To deactivate the voltage loop entirely, FB can be connected to GND. To deactivate the LED current loop entirely, the ISP and ISN should be tied together and the CTRL input tied to VREF . When the FB input exceeds a voltage about 60mV lower than the FB regulation voltage, the pull-down driver on the OPENLED pin is activated. This function provides a status indicator that the load may be disconnected and the constant-voltage feedback loop is taking control of the switching regulator. Dimming of the LED array is accomplished by pulsing the current using the PWM pin. When the PWM pin is low, switching is disabled and the error amplifier is turned off so that it does not drive the VC node. Also, all internal loads on the VC node are disabled so that the charge state of the VC node will be saved on the internal compensation capacitor. This feature reduces transient recovery time. When the PWM input again transitions high, the demand current for the switch returns to the value just before PWM last transitioned low. To further reduce transient recovery time, an external MOSFET should be used to disconnect the LED array current loop when PWM is low, stopping COUT from discharging. APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Dimming Control There are two methods to control the current source for dimming using the LT3519. The first method, PWM Dimming, uses the PWM pin to modulate the current source between zero and full current to achieve a precisely programmed average current. To make this method of current control more accurate, the switch demand current is stored on the internal VC node during the quiescent phase when PWM is low. This feature minimizes recovery time when the PWM signal goes high. To obtain best PWM dimming performance, it is necessary to use an external disconnect switch in the LED current path to prevent the output capacitor from discharging during the PWM signal low phase. For best product of analog and PWM dimming, the minimum PWM low or high time should be at least six switching cycles. Maximum PWM period is 3519f 8 LT3519 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION determined by the system. The maximum PWM dimming ratio (PWMRATIO) can be calculated from the maximum PWM period (tMAX) and the minimum PWM pulse width (tMIN) as follows: PWMRATIO = The LED current programming feature through the CTRL pin possibly increases the total dimming range by a factor of ten. In order to have the accurate LED current, precision resistors are preferred (1% is recommended). The CTRL pin should not be left open. Tie to VREF if not used. tMAX tMIN Example: tMAX = 9ms, tMIN = 3μs PWMRATIO = Programming Output Voltage (Constant Voltage Regulation) or Open LED/Overvoltage Threshold 9ms = 3000 : 1 3µs The second method of dimming control, Analog Dimming, uses the CTRL pin to linearly adjust the current sense threshold during the PWM high state. When the CTRL pin voltage is less than 1V but more than 100mV, the LED current is: ILED = VCTRL – 100mV 4 • RSENSE When VCTRL is higher than 1.2V, the LED current is clamped to be: ILED = When VCTRL is more than 1V but less than 1.2V, the LED current is in the nonlinear region of VISP-VISN Threshold vs VCTRL as shown in the Typical Performance Characteristics. 250mV RSENSE For a boost application, the output voltage can be set by selecting the values of R1 and R2 (see Figure 1) according to the following equation: R1 VOUT = +1 • 1.22V R2 For open LED protection of a boost type LED driver, set the resistor from the output to the FB pin such that the expected VFB during normal operation will not exceed 1.1V. For a buck mode or buck-boost mode LED driver, the output voltage is typically level-shifted to a signal with respect to GND as illustrated in Figure 2. The open LED voltage level can be expressed as: VOUT = VBE(Q1) + R1 • 1.22V R2 + RSENSE(EXT) R1 V OUT VOUT – R1 LT3519 FB R2 R2 3519 F01 3519 F02 Figure 1.

Recommended Inductor Vendors The falling SHDN/UVLO value can be accurately set by the resistor divider. A small 2μA pull-down current is active when SHDN/UVLO is below the 1.22V threshold. The purpose of this current is to allow the user to program the rising hysteresis.

SHDN/UVLO Threshold Programming Inductor Selection The inductor used with the LT3519 should have a saturation current rating of 1A or greater. For buck mode LED drivers, the inductor value should be chosen to give a ripple current 150mA or more. In the buck mode, the inductor value can be estimated using the formula: DBUCK • ( VIN – VLED ) µH • A • MHz fOSC (MHz) • 0.15A V V DBUCK = LED VIN L (µH) = VLED is the voltage across the LED string, VIN is the input voltage to the converter, and fOSC is the switching frequency. In the boost configuration, the inductor can be estimated using the formula: L (µH) = DBOOST • VIN µH • A • MHz fOSC (MHz) • 0.15A V DBOOST = VENDOR PHONE WEB Input Capacitor Selection For proper operation, it is necessary to place a bypass capacitor to GND close to the VIN pin of the LT3519. A 1μF or greater capacitor with low ESR should be used. A ceramic capacitor is usually the best choice. In the buck mode configuration, the capacitor at the input to the power converter has large pulsed currents. For best reliability, this capacitor should have low ESR and ESL and have an adequate ripple current rating. A 2.2μF ceramic type capacitor is usually sufficient for LT3519. Output Capacitor Selection The selection of output capacitor depends on the load and converter configuration, i.e., step-up or step-down and the operating frequency. For LED applications, the equivalent resistance of the LED is typically low, and the output filter capacitor should be sized to attenuate the current ripple. To achieve the same LED ripple current, the required filter capacitor value is larger in the boost and buck-boost mode applications than that in the buck mode applications. Lower operating frequencies will require proportionately higher capacitor values. For LED buck mode applications, a 1μF ceramic capacitor is usually sufficient. For the LED boost and buck-boost mode applications, a 2.2μF ceramic capacitor is usually sufficient. Very high performance PWM dimming applications may require a larger capacitor value to support the LED voltage during PWM transitions. Use only ceramic capacitors with X7R, X5R or better dielectric as they are best for temperature and DC bias stability of the capacitor value. All ceramic capacitors exhibit loss ( VLED – VIN ) VLED 3519f 10 LT3519 APPLICATIONS INFORMATION of capacitance value with increasing DC voltage bias, so it may be necessary to choose a higher value capacitor to get the required capacitance at the operation voltage. Always check that the voltage rating of the capacitor is sufficient. Schottky diode to charge the output capacitor. The selection of inductor and capacitor value should ensure the peak of the inrush current to below 5A. In addition, the LT3519 turn-on should be delayed until the inrush current is less than the maximum current limit. Table 2.

To prevent electromagnetic interference (EMI) problems, proper layout of high frequency switching paths (see Figure 4) is essential. Minimize the length and area of all traces connected to the switching node pin (SW). Keep the sense voltage pins (ISP and ISN) away from the switching node. The bypass capacitor on the VIN supply to the LT3519 should be placed as close as possible to the VIN pin and GND. Likewise, place COUT next to the CATHODE pin. Do not extensively route high impedance signals such as FB and CTRL, as they may pick up switching noise. Figure 5 shows the recommended component placement. Open LED Detection The LT3519 provide an open-collector status pin, OPENLED, that pulls low when the FB pin is within ~60mV of its 1.22V regulated voltage. If the open LED clamp voltage is programmed correctly using the FB pin, then the FB pin should never exceed 1.1V when LEDs are connected, therefore, the only way for the FB pin to be within 60mV of the 1.22V regulation voltage is for an open LED event to have occurred.
